While Tesla doesn’t have anything new to show at the on-going Detroit auto show, the Apple-of-carmakers has revealed new details of its upcoming all-electric seven-seat SUV, the Model X.
It’s where “utility meets performance,” apparently, combining the space and functionality of an SUV with seating for seven adults and the “uncompromised performance” of an electric car. Right. Tesla is not big on modesty, that’s for sure.
The big highlights here are the so-called “Falcon Wing Doors,” which open up instead of out to allow “easy access to the third row seat, even from the narrowest of parking spaces.” Just don’t mention underground car parks with a low ceiling clearance…
Three engine, or rather, motor options will be offered: 60 kWh, 85 kWh and 85 kWh Performance. All come standard with Dual Motor All Wheel Drive, so presumably the top version will have the same 691 hp package offered on the Model S P85D, which gets to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. It’ll arrive in American showrooms in early 2016.

What next for Tesla?
An all electric excavator?
They made producing electric car look soo easy.
Tesla easily rules the future automotive world. Current Model S handling already surpass Porsche Panemara Turbo S, even Aston Martin Rapide S. While BMW or Audi just started kicking off with own electric car, Tesla already building up super-charge station around its market. Obviously other car makers are far behind now, and car enthusiasm should know bout this.
Hmmm…..the cute version of Model S…lets see it in action.
America made cars in terms of design and technology was once falling far far behind Japan, Europe or even Korea made car, but now they are catching up so fast with much better design & advance technology than others…but not sure on quality though.
Small.
